Did these 2 games fall flat sales/popularity-wise? who here actually played these? Psychonauts 2 is on Game Pass, so it's a different proposition, but consider flopping as in few people played it.
If Deathloop flops, what does that mean for Arkane? both Prey and Dishonored 2 weren't exactly big hits. Arkane seems to be safely tucked into the Zenimax deal, but these guys are really struggling to make a game that people want to play. Redfall, their new game coming out this summer, seems to be a desperate plea to fit into the service as a game market.
I think both of these companies are happy they are under Microsoft and Game Pass moving forward, I don't think they could survive if not.
